Mexican Hot Dogs
The Viral Mexican Hot Dogs that are going around TikTok are nothing less than DIVINE. The hot dogs get thrown in a pan with jalapeños, tomatoes, and onions.
Servings: 4 hot dogs
Ingredients
- 4 hot dog buns (I used Brioche)
- 4 tablespoons butter
- ¼ cup avocado oil add more if needed
- 4 hot dogs
- 2 tomatoes quartered
- 2 jalapeños seeded and sliced
- 1 large onion sliced
- grated cheese optional
Instructions
- Butter each hot dog bun on all sides and set aside.
- Heat up a pan on the stove on medium-high heat.
- Add in the oil and let it get hot. Make a shallow slit in the middle of each hot dog with a knife.
- Once the oil shimmers, add in the quartered tomatoes, hot dogs, sliced and seeded jalapeños and sliced onions.
- Cook the veggies with the hot dogs, stirring, until the veggies are all caramelized. If the pan starts to burn, add in a splash of water to deglaze it.
- When the veggies and hot dogs are golden in color, take them out of the pan and set aside.
- Now, take the buttered buns and add them to the pan, making sure to turn them so that they get toasted on each side.
- Add a hot dog to each bun along with the caramelized veggies. Top with cheese, if using, and enjoy!

Notes
- Toppings: Add sliced avocado or guacamole for creaminess and healthy fats. A sweet and spicy mango salsa is a refreshing twist on traditional toppings. Fresh pico de gallo adds vibrant color and flavor. Add grilled corn kernels to the mix for sweetness and char.
- Pepper alternatives: If jalapeños aren't enough, kick things up with habaneros or your favorite hot sauce. For less heat, use poblano peppers instead of jalapeños, or remove the seeds from the jalapeños.
- Condiments: Add refreshing condiments like sour cream or relish.
